Board adopts resolution celebrating Mary Tillman Price’s 100th birthday
Summary
The Caroline County Board of Supervisors unanimously adopted a resolution honoring Mary Tillman Price on her 100th birthday; the resolution recounts her local life, family and community involvement.
The Caroline County Board of Supervisors on May 27 adopted a resolution celebrating the 100th birthday of Mary Tillman Price.
The resolution, presented by the chair and introduced by Supervisor Underwood, outlines Price’s life in Caroline County, noting her birth on May 18, 1925, her family, long membership at Second Mount Zion Baptist Church, and work at local plants. The board voted in favor of adopting the resolution during opening remarks.
Supervisor Underwood moved adoption of the resolution; a board member seconded the motion and the chair called the question. The transcript records the motion, the second, and the board saying “Aye” to approve: “All in favor? Aye. Opposed? So moved.” The resolution text, read aloud at the meeting, described Price as one of nine children, a mother of eight, grandmother and great‑grandmother, and an active member of her church, and wished her many returns on her 100th birthday.
The resolution names Mary Tillman Price’s birth date as May 18, 1925, and notes community roles including work at an Expo tobacco factory and participation in the Victorian Memorial Choir at Second Mount Zion Baptist Church. The transcript shows the board presented the resolution and planned to take a photograph with Price rather than delaying the recognition until later in the agenda.
The transcript does not record a roll-call vote by name; the board indicated unanimous approval through voice votes recorded during the meeting.
